back to work again
it’s tiring lifted boxes all day long
back to work again
it’s a strain
to hear what people say
amidst the noise of machinery
back to work again
as a sea of cardboard faces
with permanent frowns
cry salt tears
into the bucketful of aching muscles
back to work again
as the odour of frozen vegetables
permeates my nostrils
pollutes my lungs
and returns to be recycled
into papier-mâché figureheads
back to work again
one of society’s drop outs
in this stinking pit
of rotting
human braincells
that lie idle while the people in white
try to stamp robot on our foreheads
back to work again
